No, what you did was replace a well-verified albeit short article with some chatty and unverified notes. Drmies (talk) 16:30, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I replaced an initial hoax article with that short but well-verified article. Wikishovel (talk) 16:35, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Wikishovel, I see that now--thanks. Rohcool323, do you feel you owe us an explanation for this "Titfuckitis" bullshit? Your future on Wikipedia depends on your answer. Drmies (talk) 16:50, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as Nete Virus (Human), is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Request reason:

I want to help edit pages on wikipedia to add useful information and I have learnt my lesson on vandalising pages

Decline reason:

This unblock request has been declined due to your history of vandalism and/or disruption to this encyclopedia. However, we are willing to give you another chance if you can earn back the trust of the Wikipedia community. To be unblocked you need to demonstrate and confirm that you are willing and able to contribute positively to Wikipedia.

After you have read the rules, pick any article on Wikipedia that you want to improve. If you have trouble choosing an article, there are lists under Category:Articles needing cleanup.

Once you have decided on the article you will propose improvements to:

  1. Click the Edit tab at the top of that article;
  2. Copy three or four paragraphs of the article that you want to improve.
    • Do not copy the infobox ({{infobox name|...}}).
    • Do not copy any images or files ([[File:Name.jpg|thumb|caption]]).
    • Do not copy the article's categories from the bottom of the page ([[Category:Name]]).
    • Do not copy the stub tag ({{Foo stub}}).
  3. Click edit on your talk page and create a new section using this format: == [[Article title]] ==. Paste the text that you copied underneath. Do not save yet.
  4. Place {{reflist-talk}} at the end of the copied text.
  5. Place your cursor in the edit summary box and create an edit summary in the following format: Copied content from [[Name of Article]]; see that article's history for attribution.
  6. Save the page by clicking Publish changes.
  7. Edit the section you have copied. Propose adding new information to the article. Add inline citations to reliable sources that verifies the information. We are not looking for basic typo corrections or small additions without citations.
  8. When you are done with your work, save your edits. Then create a new unblock request using {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} and an administrator will review your proposed edits.

If we (including the original blocking admin) are convinced that your proposed edits will improve Wikipedia as an encyclopedia, you will be unblocked.

If you need help while working with your proposed edits, you may ask a question on this talk page. Just place {{Help me}} with your question below it, then add your signature using ~~~~. Thank you. Yamla (talk) 12:43, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Diorama

[edit]

Album and single releases

[edit]

Following a 31 March 2002 release on record label Eleven,[1] Diorama reached number one on the ARIA Albums Chart on 14 April, making it Silverchair's fourth chart-topping album.[2] It went on to be certified triple-platinum by ARIA,[3] indicating sales in excess of 210,000 copies.[4] The album peaked at number seven in New Zealand, thirteen in Austria, forty in Switzerland, and 116 in France.[2] Diorama reached number ninety-one on the U.S. Billboard 200.[5]

The first single, "The Greatest View", was released in advance of the album on 28 January 2002.[6] It reached number three in Australia, where it was also certified gold,[7] and number four in New Zealand and Canada.[8] It charted at number thirty-six on Billboard's Hot Modern Rock Tracks in 2007 when re-released alongside the band's next album, Young Modern.[9] Johns wrote "The Greatest View" as a response to the media "always watching [him] in different ways".[10] It was not intended to be aggressive but rather a straightforward commentary on the media frenzy that had surrounded the band for many years.[10]

On 13 May 2002, "Without You" was released as the second single.[11] It peaked at number eight in Australia but dropped to number twenty-nine the following week, spending only five weeks on the chart.[12] The song was first announced by Silverchair bass guitarist Chris Joannou in November 1999, when he told fans the band had "a very small cache of recorded material stored away", including "Without You".[13]

"Without You" was followed by "Luv Your Life", which peaked at number twenty in Australia after its 20 September release.[14][15] The inspiration for the song came to Johns during a therapy session, based on the idea that "there were people in the world who needed treatment but couldn't afford therapy."[16] Johns composed most of the song's lyrics while listening to a therapist.[16] In a performance at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire, Johns jokingly said "Luv Your Life" was dedicated "to all my ladies".[17]

With the release of The Diorama Box a fourth single, "After All These Years" was released on the 1st of December 2002. This single included the song, without the outro. Two demos of songs before Van Dyke Parks added orchestral arrangements and an interview with the band describing each track.[18]

The final single, "Across the Night", was released on 31 March 2003.[19] The song, which Johns wrote over nine hours on a sleepless night,[10] peaked at number twenty-four on its three weeks on the Australian chart.[20] The arrangement by Parks features twin keyboards and a full orchestra.[10][21] The band's much-delayed tour in support of Diorama took its name from "Across the Night".[22]

The Diorama Box

[edit]

On 1 December 2002, a limited-edition CD box set was released as The Diorama Box, consisting of the first three singles from the album as well as a new single, "After All These Years" (I also want to create a page for this single as I have information for it).

Request reason:

Above may not look like much but I have plenty of real knowledge to share on Wikipedia that not many other people who are active on Wikipedia may know. It would also be handy to be able to add this information as soon as I get it instead of not being able to because I made a huge mistake resulting in being banned from Wikipedia. I messed up when I was vandalising other pages and it wasn't as funny as I thought it was and it was really stupid and I have learnt from my mistakes

The change to this is the addition of the paragraph starting With the release of The Diorama Box a fourth single.... From what I see, there's no source provided for the new information, just a pointer to the YouTube of the song in question. Since you made a practice of trying to hoax Wikipedia, you really need to learn, and quickly, how to provide reliable sources for everything you wish to include. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 03:50, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have other sources for the After All These Years single:

Is there any other sources that I should search for? Rohcool323 (talk) 04:21, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
